An economics, investment, trading and policy blog with a focus on Modern Monetary Theory (MMT). We seek the truth, avoid the mainstream and are virulently anti-neoliberalism.
The incompetent economists who did the "forgetting" before the "rediscovery" all still have their jobs, of course: Rogoff, Reinhart, etc. Economics is a respectable middle class profession, and members of those sort of professions are reluctant to call out incompetence when it stares them in the face for fear of bringing the profession into deisrepute. So incompetents get to the top!
